MAAS (Metal as a Service) brings cloud-style provisioning to physical servers by automating server setup and management. It allows servers to be easily deployed and recycled to dynamically scale services. Juju is a service orchestration tool that facilitates the automated deployment and management of services on MAAS-provisioned servers through "charms" that encapsulate services. Together, MAAS and Juju provide an open source solution for automating the deployment of cloud infrastructure and services on both physical and cloud environments.

2. MASS – Metal as a Service
What?

3. It's Server Orechestration
● Server Orchestration describes the
automated arrangement, coordination,
and management of complex
computer systems with pre-defined
environment.

4. MASS – Metal as a Service
● Metal as a Service -- MAAS -- brings
the language of the cloud to physical
servers. It makes it easy to set up the
hardware on which to deploy any
service that needs to scale up and
down dynamically; a cloud being just
one example.

5. MASS – Metal as a Service
Why?

6. MASS – Metal as a Service
”As we move from “tens” to “hundreds” to
“thousands” of nodes in a typical data centre we
need new tools and practices. This hyperscale story
– of hyper-dense racks with wimpy nodes – is the
big shift in the physical world which matches the
equally big shift to cloud computing in the virtualised
world. Ubuntu’s popularity in the cloud comes in part
from being leaner, faster, more agile. And MAAS –
Metal as a Service – is bringing that agility back to
the physical world for hyperscale deployments” - By
Mark Shuttleworth
